No BigD NYE this year.
Gonna spend New Year’s Eve with BFF Mitzi at her work, at an assisted living center, because she has to work tonight. Which sucks. But we’ll be watching the game, so it’s all good. Go Stars! Happy New Year! Had 2009 not sucked so much, BFF Mitzi and I would be IN Dallas, AT the game, and would be bringing in the new year with 40,000 Dallas Stars fans. I hope 2010 is better - for...

#XmasReadathon 2009
I didn’t finish Cruel and Unusual by Patricia Cornwell before the official start of the #xmasreadathon. SO, I have read 76 pages of the book since the start of the readathon (while trying to finish getting ready for Christmas in the wee hours this morning, getting a few hours of sleep, starting the roast LATE, and spending WAY too long with my Dad’s widow). I have about 30 pages to go,...

Why do you think you’re “socially inept”?
I have never been a social person. When in any kind of social situation, outside of family, I usually end up a.) being inappropriate, mouthy, and/or vulgar, b.) being sarcastic and/or rude, c.) saying very little, or d.) keeping to myself and just watching people. I do not know how to interact with people and it’s...
Text messages to son that were the result of me...
Kinda drunk me: My son, thou must give all for all, and be nothing of thine own.
Son: Wut?
Me: Son, let not the labors which thou hast undertaken for my sake crush thee; neither let tribulations, from whatever source, cast thee down; but in every occurrence let my promise strengthen and console thee.
Son: You silly, but I am very fond of ye, mommas.
Me: Son, he who striveth to withdraw himself from obedience, withdrawest himself from grace; and he that seeketh particular privileges loseth such as are in common.
Son: You confuse the fuck out of me sometimes.
Me: LULZ

I don’t want to meet someone who thinks my bad habits are “adorable”. I don’t want to date a person who goes out of their way to have stuff in common with me. If I chew my gum too loud and it annoys you, tell me. If I’m a bitch, say I’m a bitch. I don’t have patience for people who compromise, who conform, or who are passive just for the sake of getting along....

Why does living hurt so much?
One of my all-time favorite movie quotes is from the Princess Bride: “Life is pain, your Highness. Anyone who says differently is selling something.” That being said, I’ll try to sell you on a few ideas. Living, in and of itself, does not hurt. Muscles hurt, tendons and ligaments hurt, nerve endings hurt, heads hurt, sinuses hurt - and that’s...
FMS Life Recommendations on Amazon - For... →
Some of you may have seen this, some may not have. The truth is, I’m an Amazon Associate. That means I get 4% of the overall costs of products I recommend that sell through my link. It isn’t much really, but it does add up. So far I’ve heard $8.67. I was hoping to earn more for Christmas, because it looks like I’m regifting this year. But I was hoping to get something for...
@Perpetualspiral 's #xmasreadathon
The next book I am reading for Michelle’s readathon is the Scarpetta Collection Volume II: All That Remains and Cruel & Unusual. I had started reading this book back in October, but kept getting distracted (usually with other books). It is my intention to complete the entire volume, which contains two books, for this readathon.

Darkly Dreaming Dexter by Jeff Lindsay
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars (Yes, I really liked it!)
Being a huge fan of the Showtime series, I just HAD to read the book! And having seen the first season of Dexter, I had an inkling of how Darkly Dreaming Dexter was going to end. But what a shocker! I won’t give away any spoilers here, but I was pleased with both the similarities and the differences...
